This looks good; I'd ask you double check which deps are required vs.
optional: I'm pretty sure we don't -require- any of those packages.
Ditto for their correspond build deps. (e.g. libgdbm-devel)
parrot is recursively listed as a build requirement
For the optional items, perl's Moose should be on the list (for
smartlink), and Test::Perl::Critic/Perl::Critic for the critic tests.
(Honestly we should have this documented somewhere else and just refer
to it from here.)

Here are some notes about the build/tests..
** I get this warning on configure:
Determining CPU architecture and OS...................................done.
Determining JIT capability... 10 [main] test 1944 _cygtls::handle_exceptions
: Error while dumping state (probably corrupted stack)
10 [main] test 4596 _cygtls::handle_exceptions: Error while dumping state (
probably corrupted stack)
..........................................yes.
Generating CPU specific stuff.........................................done.
Verifying that the compiler supports function pointer casts............yes.
** Get a similar error running t/src/extend.t
** Bug in t/doc/pod.t - few warnings of the type:
Error: /cygdrive/d/sandbox/parrot/pbc_to_exe is unreadable: No such file or dire
ctory
... But all tests pass.
Regards.
